    Unie,
    If your Printer indicates the error, then what you do depends on your printer's model.
    You can look up the troubleshooting tips for your printer:
    Open  HP Drivers & Downloads
    Enter your Printer Model information
    Select your Printer from the “Results” list
    Open tab "Troubleshooting" > Select Solve a problem > Jam and Feed Problems >
    Select An 'Out of Paper' Message Displays ...
    The exact wording may vary.  The point is to find the document that most closely matches your situation.

  • 7515 printer thinks its out of paper and is not

    My HP 7515 printer-scanner thinks it is out of paper when it is not.  I have done the trouble shooting advised with no improvement.  I also vacuumed for paper dust that might be fouling up any sensors.  This has not been a heavily worked computer. My old 4215xi still does the majority of my  printing.

    @ SusanK210044 -
    * Try removing all the paper from the input tray and looking with a flashlight into the rollers in the paper tray.  Make sure there isn't any small pieces of paper, or a full sheet, caught in the rollers.  
    * Also, check the steps in the document, found here, for steps to help troubleshoot an Out of Paper error message.  This will help determine if it is a settings or hardware based issue and provide steps to help fix the no feed problem.  
    @ 207 -
    * Make sure there isn't a small piece of paper on the inside, right side of the printhead.  This is a common spot for a small piece of paper to ball up and give this error message.  
    * Also, have you followed the steps in the paper jam troubleshooting document for this printer?  A real or false paper jam will be troubleshot in the same manner.  The document can be found here.  
    Hope this helps.

  • HP PSC 1610 All-In-One doesn't see that paper is loaded

    HP PSC 1610 All-In-One doesn't see that paper is loaded and keeps asking me to load paper and press OK. I have done that per manual with no success. What's going on?
    I am using an Intel MacBook running SnowLeopard

    OK, I think this was among a series of "recalled" (years ago) printers where the feed rollers would become coated with a very slick substance that was outgassing from the rubber.  There was a cleaning kit made for this but I am not sure it is still available.  Instructions for it are here.
    It the absence of the kit, you can clean the rollers manually by removing the rear door and scrubbing the three rollers with Scotchbrite.  Red was used in the kit, but green may be aggressive enough to do the job.  You may have to fiddle with the printer to clean the entire circumference of the three rollers.  Once you do this, you will be good to go for years to come!

  • I have a late 2011 macbook pro and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated

    I have a late 2011 macbook pro running OSX Lion, and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated. Im wondering what can i do to stop this or get it to update.

    Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

  • Why does my printer keep saying out of paper? it's not!

    My printer tries to pick up paper for a long time then tels me its out of paper...It's not.  Is my machine broken?  I just bought it like 2 months ago.  What do I do or where do I take it to get it fixed?

     Reset the product
    With the product turned on , disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button
    try printing again
    if this doesn't work...
    If you just purchased 2 months ago you are STILL in warranty an will get free support if you call
    1800.474.6836
    If they are unable to resolve over the phone you may be eligible for a free replacment.... but they will have to go thru trouble shooting first. expect to spend close to 1 hour on the phone.

  • I have disabled my iphone 5 and connected it to Itunes, It now says its doing a sotware update. does this mean it will wipe the old password off and be able to use my phone again?

    When you restore your iPhone, it will erase everything from your iPhone including the passcode. You can restore a backup from iTunes or iCloud to get your infromation back though. This article may help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

    i'm having issues with reinstalling my itunes.it says that my apple mobile device faild to start and will not go any further

    Hey there CrazyTC,
    It sounds like you are unable to re install iTunes because the Apple Mobile Device service failed to start. Try restarting it with the following article:
    How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567
    Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Close iTunes and disconnect the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Click the Windows Start button .
    In the Start Search field type Services.
    In the Programs section of the search results, Click "Services".
    Select Apple Mobile Device and click Stop the service as shown below:
    After the service has stopped, click Start the service.
    After the Apple Mobile Device service has started again, open iTunes and connect the device.
    Then if the issue is resolved, set the service to start Automatically with the same article.
    If it is still not working, use these steps from the same article to completely uninstall iTunes and its associated applications and install a fresh copy.
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS
    If the issue continues after restarting AMDS, then you'll need to remove and reinstall AMDS and iTunes.
    Completely uninstall AMDS, iTunes, and all Apple software. Click the appropriate links below for steps:
    Windows XP
    Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Restart the computer.
    Download and install (or reinstall) the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes. Installing iTunes will also install AMDS.
    Restart the computer.
    Start iTunes and connect the device. It should be recognized properly in Windows.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only. However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is alr

    Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
    However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
    What we found from out testing:
    - The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
    - The file can be closed and  Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
    - Also, until the  Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file. 
    Example Scenario:
    - User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
    - Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
    - User 1 saves his file and closes it - but  Dreamweaver is still open.
    - User 2 also saves his file and leaves  Dreamweaver  open.
    - The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
    - If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
    - Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
    Other information:
    - Files are opened directly from the server
    - Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
    - Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
    - The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
    - The users are usually working on the files all day
    - It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
    It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
    Anyone know if this is a known issue?
    Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
    Thanks

    Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

    I had an HP laptop with Itunes on it and kept my library on an external hard drive. I had a 160gb classic Ipod.
    My computer died and i am buying a new one (mac is out of budget)
    When I get my new computer, obviously I will download Itunes. My Ipod still has all the music on it and the external hard drive is ok.
    I don't want to "erase" or lose any information when I sync with a new itunes that is "empty"
    What are the steps? After I download Itunes and set the folder location to my external harddrive what is next? Will Itunes recognize my IPOD? Will it load the music/list from my ipd or external into itunes?
    Thanks in advance

  • Hp 2540 says it need more paper when it don't

    Hp 2540 printer says it needs more paper when it dont

    Hello Vincento,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I see that your 2540 will not print, stating it needs paper even though the tray is loaded with paper. I have a few more questions to better assist you.
    What is the device you are printing from, computer (if so, what Operating System, Windows or Mac), Apple phone or tablet, Android phone or tablet, etc?
    What are you trying to print, photo, web page, email, document, etc?
    What type of paper is loaded in the printer?
    In the mean time, try cleaning the rollers in the printer.
